Acetylpyruvate hydrolase

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

In enzymology, an acetylpyruvate hydrolase (EC 3.7.1.6) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction

acetylpyruvate + H₂O acetate + pyruvate

Thus, the two substrates of this enzyme are acetylpyruvate and H₂O, whereas its two products are acetate and pyruvate.

This enzyme belongs to the family of hydrolases, specifically those acting on carbon-carbon bonds in ketonic substances. The systematic name of this enzyme class is 2,4-dioxopentanoate acetylhydrolase.
